Not worth it. You will end up playing the h support when something goes wrong.

Can someone please point me to a repo with a nix configuration for a desktop setup with a minimum of KDE? Bonus points for it being more like Fedora.

I think why Lennox seems so unapproachable by so many it’s because there’s so many distros and choices people get choice paralysis. And then as soon as they ask anyone about it they get 20,000 different results. Lol

Thanks . I think that is helpful. I think I will start in a vm first. Looks like dual boot is broken.

I’ve been daily driving Fedora KDE as well I was interested in trying kinoite also but have not yet. Is it worth it?

Is that your unbiased opinion about opinions?

My advice, pick a base distribution, and build what you want. Mostly when picking different distros all you are really picking is a package manager, default applications, and a desktop.

If you want to advance in your Linux knowledge building your own will help you quite a bit in learning how it works at the core and what peices are needed to run a system. Then when something breaks you have the understanding to fix or at least properly ask for help. I would especially say this is true if you are looking to switch to arch as your base distribution.

I would only recommend Manjaro to a new person trying to dip their toes into arch but not for their daily driver.
